Rendezvous - Thibodaux

Took about 10 minutes to get seated .. They were not that busy !! Ate the breakfast buffet.. food was cold, grits could be cut with a fork biscuit gravy also .. service was slow!! Table next to us had issues with their order off the menu He wanted a steak was told they were out.. he ordered a hamburger steak and did not get his onions and mushrooms !! From looking around I call it no management or lack of management duties !!

Friday lunch buffet was great. Good variety of soups. Fried seafood was excellent. However the white beans were brown and not very appetizing. Update.....one year later, total reversal! Friday lunch buffet was awful. Shrimp and crawfish in stews were mushy. Crawfish stew had muddy taste, probably not La. crawfish. Gumbo and jambalaya had strange taste. Not near the quality of food. What a difference a year makes! Different cooks????? Never again. In addition, they charged me extra bc I paid with a credit card!!!! Disgusting

The food was great, we will be back. I don't see why they have negative reviews. The waitresses were very kind to everyone. They had a choice of a nice buffet, but we ordered off the menu. The food tasted amazing. Thank you.

Before I post this review please keep this in mind. We had to make reservations and choose our meals online. Later we got called two days in a row confirming what we chose. We showed up at designated time and we?re seated. We were ignored for 25 minutes. I approached a waitress to ask her why. She apologized and said she?d bring us wine, a pitcher of ice water and app. After another 20 min we got wine, no water and an app. 20 minutes later we had to ask if we we?re getting other courses. We got a soggy plate of lettuce out of the fridge. They brought the bisque that was so salty we couldn?t eat it. They said we know yet served it. Main dish was filet and lobster tail. They came to our table and told us they ran out of lobster tails and would throw us a couple claws. Even those weren?t clean and my husbands still had shell. As my husband says, these are the two times we go there. The first and the last.

Pro Tip: Go well before 8am if you want the $12 Saturday morning breakfast buffet. The food was fine but had obviously been sitting out for a while by the time we got there at 8am. The $5 mimosa was strong though and helped me overlook the grits with that thick skin on top and the cold eggs. But the bacon was crisp and the coffee was greaaaaat! Overall, it was definitely worth the money. 4/5, will dine again!
